one for @emerygt350 (and anyone else who thinks henry ford was alright).

got the falcon ute finished.
about 3 months behind schedule. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
you think you are just going to be screwing all the last bits in - no worries - but no.

aussie fords. a thing of the past.

gave it final finishing touch.
aus design award sticker stuck in the window the way an indifferent 18 year old assembly line worker did it 25 + years ago after a night on the beers.

Love me some Marty and Moog! So talented. I got hooked on them when they traveled to Japan to buy the Fairlady and had to pull the engine and brake linings to get past the Aussie import rule about proving you weren’t bringing asbestos in to the country.

My dad left me a Ford Ranchero when he passed. He was so proud of having the interior done by the same place as the Driving Miss Daisy cars. My brother looked so disappointed at the reading of the will that I traded it to him for a custom trailer. (He was a welder).

The car scene in Australia is so hot and tech heavy right now. I’m doing Haltech Elite 2500 for my 240Z right now. I’ve also got some bits from EFI supply over there…

lots of those orig Z cars down here.
aussies had an instant emotional attachment to the straight 6.
these days you would think we were all V8 addicted bogans.
but actually back in the 70s it truly was the land of the hopped straight 6.

the 240Z meshed straight in with the holden torana gtr-xu1.
head to head combat.

when i was a teenager i used to love peering through the windows of Z cars.
they had the best dashboard. pod instruments.
tried to make my mother buy one at the datsun dealer.
she bought herself a 180B to replace her beetle.
even if it wasn't a Z it was still a cool car.
